let admiral minty charter your [house] boat this summer..

 

because let's face it..

#1. that's the worst blog title you've ever heard in your life 

#2. minty has some new and well priced nautical inspired goods 

and

#3. just admit it..

nautical/beachy/coastal

done right is one of your favorites..

 

i enjoy it. 

and since i am the mother of dragons you do what i say.

or i will tell my dragons to 'valar morghulis' you.

 

i am so aware of how lame that last sentence was.

 

but since it's summer i have been reduced to bad hbo puns, even worse blog titles-

plus i dropped a cooler on my toe yesterday and i woke up with a roach in my hair.

 

friends, that is TEXTBOOK first monday of summer material.

 

if you are also suffering from summer/monday brain..

this might help..

 

 

 i am aware that fiona's internal mouth hole looks like one of those movie monsters where their mouth

stretches beyond what is really their mouth just before they eat your face off.  no bath salts even needed.

i'm sure it's not an accident since all that has come out of her mouth has been the stuff of nightmares.

 

anyway...

 

say it with me..

 

"i love nautical shit!!"
